Law School Holds First Assembly of Year. Hears Prexy And New Law Dean
President Rufus B. von KieinSmid addressed the School at its first as sembly in Porter Hall yesterday morning at ten o’clock. The Law School turned out en masse to hear the president’s message, and Ranny Draper, president of the Law School student body presided at the meeting. The occasion was also the introduction of the new members of the I^aw faculty to the students.
The president of the university spoke words of advice to the students. He said, “There is an element of truth in the popular expression that one never leans to study till one gets into the professional school. Presumably because the course in liberal arts is a broad study, and when one gets to law school it becomes concentrated, and the object of ones educational program is realized.
“That a sense of real worthwhileness of the subject is necessary to the success of the course. The subject of law must have a real appeal to the student because of the intrinsic value of the profession, and not because our fathers and uncles are lawyers. The subject must appeal strongly to the student, and it must command all his time, if he expects success in the profession”. In closing he wished the school success in the coming year.
Dean Justin Miller gave a short talk and expressed a keen pleasure
in being a part of the institution. He said. “I am vitally interested in my work because it is my profession, the president is interested in our school because it is one of the colleges of the university, and you should be interested in the work because you are preparing to make it your life work.’'
Dean Miller introduced Professor Douglas Maggs, one of the new professors ,and one who would be in charge of the Law Review. Professor Maggs spoke of the Law Review, and announced that Glenn Whitney was to be the business manager of the Review. The first ten men in the Senior Class will handle the editorial work of the Review.
Dean Miller then introduced Pro fessor Cockerill, dean of the University of South Dakota Law School, and visiting professor here this year.
D&m Miller gave a final warning to the law students. “If it is necessary for Harvard to look to its laurels, we must also. Our motto should be, “If service pleases tell others, if not tell us,” and we will do the best we can.
In closing the rally, Ranny Draper stressed the idea of creating a law school consciousness, and the fact that we should encourage friendly relations between the professors and the students, and between the students themselves, in order that the law school might have a “hello and smile year.”

CHEST TO GIVE HONOR BUTTONS
Subscribers Encouraged To Increase Previous Contributions in Coming Drive.
An “honor goal” will be sought at the fourth annual appeal of the Los.,, Angeles Community Chest, and “honor buttons” will be given to all persons who increase their highest previous subscription, according to announcement by Edwin A. Meserve, campaign chairman of the Chest.
The honor goal will be an undetermined amount beyond the bare subsistence budget of $2,750,000 fixed for the maintenance during 1928 of the 150 relief and welfare agencies which the Chest maintains. Unless a sum in excess of the minimum budget is subscribed during the appeal, agency officials say their welfare activities will be disastrously curtailed.

The honor buttons that will be given to persons who increase their subscriptions will be of a special color and design. Special honor receipts also will be given those subscribers.
Already assurances have been received at Chest headquarters, 911 South Grand Avenue, that many subscribers to last year’s budget will give more this year. In a number of instances, it was stated .subscribers have said they plan to double their previous contribution.

Saturday morning after breakfast the circle was again formed. This time the problems and needs of the campus were discussed. This was led by Catherine Colwell, who very cleverly and tactfully created much enthusiasm and determination on the part of those present to carry out the high ideals of the organization. According to Miss Hopps, an individual person who is interested in putting over a plan will have an opportunity to do so. There will be no standing committees but in its place interest groups will be formed which will function until their end has been accomplished.
From this plan many committees were formed: Dishwashing squad led by Clara Mae Parsons, advertising by Margaret Lytle, music by Inez Marie Stanley, physical recreation by Helen Cox, interior decoration by Hazel Ricker, Finance by Nora Hoffman, Ukulele club by Alice Gilson and Dramatics by Janet Mc-
1 Govney.
Sports of all kinds were participated in during the afternoon hours. The ocean appealed to many while the woods and seclusion attracted others. At 5:30 Grisilda Kuhlman from U. C. L. A., led an out-of-door vesper service. The theme of her message was the broadness of friend-(Continued on Page Two)

Men’s Glee Club Tryouts
Trojan Men’s Glee Club Plans Trips, According to Walter Zamecnik, Mgr.
Initial tryouts for the Trojan Men’s Glee Club will be held this evening at 7:30 o’clock in the Musical Organizations Building, 835 West 37th Plac£.
Harold Wm. Roberts is in charge of the musical organizations department, while M. J. Arthur Lewis is the director.
Trips by the club similar to those made in the years 1925-26 and 1926-27 will be made this year, according to Walter Zamecnik, manager. The tours of the club have become an annual occurence. In the year 1925-26 a tour of California as far north as San Francisco was made, including the principal cities on the inland route.
Last year a second tour was made, including other cities than those scheduled for the former trip. Programs were given in Santa Barbara, at a well-known theatre in San Francisco, radio stations there and in Oakland, before Stanford University and in Fresno. In all, twelve appearances were made by the group on this trip.
Special transportation is usually furnished by Motor Transit busses with the manager and director in a private machine. This facilititates the matter of arrivals, departures, and promptness on the part of the men taking the trip.
Not only do these trips furnish pleasure coupled with hard work for the men making the trip, but they also carry the prestige and influence of Southern California to citiee outside of the southern part of the state, according to the administration of the University. For that reason, the tours are of value to the participants, to the University and to the audiences before which the programs are presented.

Elizabeth Raede, whose work is always most delightful, will play Julia, sister to Eva. Imagine “Lib” and lone as two little country maidens! We Bhall also have the pleasure of seeing Paul Cunningham as the English Ix>rd.
Mr. MacDonald is not yet certain that all members of the cast which has been selected will be able to take part. Any additional tryouts will be announced later. For the present, It is enough to say that rehearsals begin this Thursday.
Mr. MacDonald is rapidly getting the work under way and has also announced that the under class play will be presented on Nov. 18. All sophomores and freshmen are eligible to try out. The date of tryouts will be given out later. A large number is expected to turn out for this is the big event in the under class year.

According to Miss Hopps, an individual person who is interested in putting over a plan will have an opportunity to do so. There will be no standing committees but in its place interest groups will be formed which will function until their end has been accomplished.
From this plan many committees were formed: Dishwashing squad led by Clara Mae Parsons, advertising by Margaret Lytle, music by Inez Marie Stanley, physical recreation by Helen Cox, interior decoration by Hazel Ricker, Finance by Nora Hoffman, Ukulele club by Alice Gilson and Dramatics by Janet Mc-

Men’s Glee Club Tryouts
Trojan Men’s Glee Club Plans Trips, According to Walter Zamecnik, Mgr.
Initial tryouts for the Trojan Men’s Glee Club will be held this evening at 7:30 o’clock in the Musical Organizations Building, 835 West 37th Plac£.
Harold Wm. Roberts is in charge of the musical organizations department, while M. J. Arthur Lewis is the director.
Trips by the club similar to those made in the years 1925-26 and 1926-27 will be made this year, according to Walter Zamecnik, manager. The tours of the club have become an annual occurence. In the year 1925-26 a tour of California as far north as San Francisco was made, including the principal cities on the inland route.
Last year a second tour was made, including other cities than those scheduled for the former trip. Programs were given in Santa Barbara, at a well-known theatre in San Francisco, radio stations there and in Oakland, before Stanford University and in Fresno. In all, twelve appearances were made by the group on this trip.
Special transportation is usually furnished by Motor Transit busses with the manager and director in a private machine. This facilititates the matter of arrivals, departures, and promptness on the part of the men taking the trip.
Not only do these trips furnish pleasure coupled with hard work for the men making the trip, but they also carry the prestige and influence of Southern California to citiee outside of the southern part of the state, according to the administration of the University. For that reason, the tours are of value to the participants, to the University and to the audiences before which the programs are presented.
